FOR WEEKLY INSPIRATION Why

Events / Joe Koller

The work of Californian artist Joe Koller channels his two major influences: surfing and the arts. His inspiration from the ocean is a constant undercurrent in his photographs of nature, urban landscapes, and travel shots. After a few group shows in Southern and Northern California over the past two years, he’ll be launching his first solo show — Adrfit — at San Francisco’s Space Gallery on April 27th.

Joshua Petker

‘Romantic street painting’ or ‘renaissance graffiti’? Joshua Petker spent years as a graffiti artist in California and Europe before painting portraits of ladies. But he hasn’t hung up his hoodie in favour of crustless cucumber sandwiches just yet. His work reeks of punk, with explosions of brash colours and bloody, textured details. And he often uses second-hand canvases, giving each piece a hidden history. [see also the work of Canadian artist, Dan Ryan]

The graffiti of Tenfold

Up to date graffiti websites are hard to come by, and even more so, good graffiti websites of Bay area heroes. Recently I came across the flickr site of Funk and Jazz. He’s got multiple photo sets, but most impressive is his collection of over 4,000 images of Bay Area street art. Read more

Joe’s work really displays a simplicity and ambiance that’s rarely seen with modern day photographers. His goal isn’t to make glossy, sharp photos but rather dreamy landscapes which make you yearn to travel along with him on these journey’s. I can’t wait to see his solo show in SF! Double it!

Against Me! put out an awesome album called New Wave last year. It was produced by Butch Vig, who did Nirvana’s Nevermind, and is just brilliant. I fell in love with it when it came out, and covered the whole album, beginning to end, putting it up for free on my website and Myspace page. It was a tribute. It’s so important for me to stay connected to the part of me that is just a music fan.

The very talented Jess Snow, the first video artist to be featured by Female Persuasion — the original site for provocative and political female artists — has created this ethereal short video for Lost At E Minor.
